Thank you to all of the Veterans who have served our nation. Freedom isn’t free and we appreciate the sacrifices you have made for all Americans.
Parents, there appears to be an issue with the PowerSchool app that gives a "Problem Syncing" error. To correct this, you must delete the app and reinstall it. It will ask for the district code, which is TNTW, and then you should be able to log back in. Contact David Myers at dmyers@acsdsc.org if you still have any questions or concerns.
Based on information from the National Weather Service and local emergency management, Abbeville County Schools will be closed Thursday, October 29th. This is out of an abundance of caution due to projected wind gusts that could affect our buses and could cause possible power outages. We will make this day up on Monday, February 22, 2021.
After a principals' meeting today, Diamond Hill Elementary principal, Todd Ramey, was given the unofficial title of iTECH Principal of the Semester. He decided to dress the part. Thanks for letting us have a little fun with that, Mr. Ramey!
Parents, an email was just sent out to the main guardian email address on file in PowerSchool regarding your child's instructional setting choice for the spring semester. There is a parent survey attached in the email that you need to complete for each child in your household. If you are unsure if your email address is on file in PowerSchool, please contact the PowerSchool clerk at your child's school and they will confirm. Thank you for your trust in ACSD as we do our best to put students first!

Just another reminder that it is census time! The U.S. Census, which is conducted every 10 years, directly impacts federal funding every year for schools and communities in South Carolina. This funding impacts special education, teacher training, technology, school lunch assistance, Head Start and after-school programs. According to the Count All Kids Campaign, more than two million young children nationally were missed in the 2010 census. If we undercount children in the 2020 census, South Carolina could miss out on funding for the programs our students depend on. If you haven't completed the census yet, please do so as soon as possible!
